So in my infinite drunken wisdom I decided to root my Galaxy last night...
(First time I root a cellphone, I have rooted Kindles before)
I found a video online, followed directions and it was a breeze..
Until I decided it was not "custom" enough and I install CyanogedMod
Google was missing so I downloaded, boot phone and install from boot
Some APS installed, some did not...
When I reboot my phone there is a flashing window, I can't really tell what it says because it goes away before I can read it
---
I know I messed up something...
There is no keyboard now...
Unfortunately, Android keyboard (AOSP) has stopped
Appears when I try to use keyboard
How can I make it work?
Please help
go into recovery mode clear data/cache/dalvic. now reflash your rom with the gapps package clear cache/dalvik reboot
Yeah...
Is not working
Phone starts with "updating apps" # of 83
After the updating is done, cyro starts again... and I get the "Keyboard" is not working message
OK, i already did the whole process a couple of times...
I keep getting the same error, the keyboard
I think the problem is with cyanogen, i don't know how to uninstall/replace it
OK, i got it working
I had to install a different version of gapps
gapps-jb-20130301-signed
that version did it for me
thanks for your help, though

Hey guys:
Unlocking and rooting my HTC Wildfire was the second most frustrating experience of my life. However, it's finally over and I flashed CM 10 onto my phone along with 4.1.2 GApps signed (I followed this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1878031&highlight=unlocked+bootloader+but+s-on).
Everything seemed to go well, except the Google Play Store doesn't work. It keeps giving me the "Error retrieving information from server. [RH-01]" message. I've also noted that Google Services Framework is NOT installed on my phone. I should note that I have 0 apps installed, meaning I do not have a file manager and there is no file manager/explorer that comes stock as far as I'm aware.
I've looked all over the internet and everything tells me to erase the cache because corrupted data seems to be the most common cause of this error message. This is obviously not the case with my phone. What do I need to do to get this thing to work? I've reflashed the GApps and even flashed a different one. I've tried manually downloading and installing Google Services Framework but it won't install. I've tried moving files around on my SD card (the only thing I can access from my computer) and nothing has worked.
I'm just about at my wit's end here guys. Please help me!
PS. I have a clockworkmod back-up from before my phone was rooted saved onto my computer. However it doesn't have my apps in it so I don't think I can get a file manager from it.
**FIXED**
I feel like an idiot, but the reason it wasn't working was because the CM 10 mod I was trying to install failed to install :S I wrote the warning sign off as something else and didn't read the message it sent me I guess.
ANYWAY I found a fix here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2136011 use the SLIMCM-10 ROM instead and that's what fixed if for me (use all the other downloads he has there too, except for the regular CM10 mod). Thanks for the help that I received, and sorry for being a n00b. Love this community BTW, you guys are the best!
This happened to me the first time I flashed icu's marvelc port of paranoid android...I fixed it by wiping everything and just reflashing the whole rom and gapps. Try that. Tell me if it works.

All,
I did not heed the warning but flashed the Turbo script even though I did not have the required recovery. I was using 4ext. I am on the newest PAC rom, S-Off and now have clockwork recovery 5.0. Every since the Turbo flash I get the persistent system UI error when I boot up. When I click OK it pops back up. I have flashed Chilly's super wipe and did a fresh install. I let Play store download all apps and everything was fine after a reboot. Then I started fixing all of my settings, All was fine until i did a reboot. I need help please.
**EDIT**
I am trying everything I can, and may have found the culprit.... please hold, still testing
**EDIT**
Fixed, I will notify chilly. If you disable "Quick Settings" on PAC 4.2.2 you will get stuck with this error. Just be patient and re-enable it.
Hello all,
I need some advice. I have tried CM11 roms and Gapps packages, only to break the keyboard or break the audio or severely ruin something, or have no working market place (google play)
I finally got everything working perfect and rebooted to do a nandroid and now the wireless is greyed out and will never turn on. I wiped and started over, setup my phone rebooted, wireless stopped working. I have come to realize that I can never reboot or power down or i have to wipe my phone and start over, as wifi is effectively permanently disabled, I have tried clearing cache and data on the settings app, i have tried rebooting, using CWM recovery menu to "Fix permission" or try reverting to previous backups like the ones i took after i setup my phone, but they no longer have wifi since i rebooted them too. for some ridiculous reason. I cannot ever reboot, run out of battery, etc,.. or i have to reformat and reconfigure all my settings its driving me insane. I've spent a few days with holding swears and refraining from throwing the phone lol.
Please help
I used KitKat 4.4.2 (CyanogenMod 11.0) 20140116 From NovaFusion and i found a Gio-Gapps-4.4.2.zip online it appears to be the only combination that isn't a total horrendous broken mess without audio, keyboard or play store can't even find google servers. Please any recommendation for fixing my wifi or maybe links to an updated or better version of cm would work?
P.S. Jenkins CM11 just says (Status 0) Installation Exiting, and won't install either.
For latest cm11(from jenkins maybe), u need CWM 6.0.5.3 recovery.
Thank you very much =), I have a new problem now though. I installed CWM from the link you gave me and Jenkins installed, then i factory reset, wiped cache, and wiped dalvik, and rebooted. The Setupwizard crashes though and I can't go any further, I tried flashing Gio-KK-Gapps-4.4.0.zip and rebooted and its still crashes. Any advice?
Follow this process:
1. Do a clean install of cm11.
2. Reboot & wait for home screen.
3. Switch off & then flash G-Apps.
4. Reboot.
If still force close occurs, just press home button & wait until home screen appears.
Or u may try different G-Apps.:thumbup:
Hope this helps...!!
Btw...there's thanks button for ur ease
Everything works except the keyboard, but i uninstalled the keyboard and used ADB to install a new one. Thank you very much for your help =)!
ur welcome bro
Hi guys I hope i'm in the right place.
So i've had a samsung galaxy s3 t999v for 2-3 years now and just yesterday i decided to root and upgrade the rom.
so i've been messing with it and now in a difficult situation...
I installed Lollipop Custom ROM...
i followed this link
Everything worked out, i had installed the ROM and was working, but I hadn't put installed the GAPPS and when I tried to just get the apk files which i did but google services would keep crashing.
"unfortunately google services has stopped".
Now you may say, oh just go into recovery mode and reset to factory or w.e, well that's the thing... I can't get into Recovery mode.
and that's where I am now... Help.

You can factory reset the phone in Settings > Backup and reset > Factory data reset. If that doesn't work, what happens when you try to get into recovery? It probably wouldn't hurt to try reflashing your recovery.

Seems Google Play Services is messed up.
Try flashing the proper GApps .zip from CWM and see if it works (Google it).
If it doesn't help or you don't know about it, leave it and do this:
As you have CWM installed, install this zip: Lollipop 5.1 from recovery.
This definitely solves the problem
I used the master stroke...flashed whole rom again
Solved....and thnx for the reply
